I like this talent , ultimate talent for a Two-Hander, You get instant hit with +dmg , and against shamans , paladins , Priests. if you are a two-hander i would say TAKE THIS ;) how slower weapon how better this talent. Cooldown not long , when cooldown gone you got another 30 rage good luck with it

Ultimate healer gimper. If you're fighting a paladin who you know is about to use his divine shield to heal himself, use mortal strike immediately before he does so. This should cut back on the amount of HP he heals himself by a large amount (this also goes for any other healer, of course) and should give you a pretty neat advantage.

To get the most out of MS (ie the largest numbers) you'll be looking for a weapon with a very high maximum damage value. Good examples are the Whirlwind Axe, Kang the Decapitator, and pretty much all of the HWL 2hers, which are much more easily available.

Generally, that will be a big, slow 2-hand weapon.

It can be said without exaggeration that this is one of the most powerful Arena abilities in-game. Also useful in Bg's, soloing, and raids. Really, one of the defining talents of a Warrior.

Does this thing have an animation besides the blood flying squishy sound like rend?

If you are going against the twin emperors in Ahn'Qiraj and they get to close too each other just spam this and that will greatly decrease their healing they got... So good especially in PvP

I was surprised that there isn't much QQ about this ability on WoWhead.

Comment by xurxoham

I have a question: Does its antiheal debuff stack with another warriors' mortal strike, or other classes antiheal debuffs, like Wound Poison?

MORTAL STRIKE, HOOOOOOO!

Comment by Oakenshadow

Anyone know if this is modified by any melee damage?

Comment by Hairband

This description is for players at 85. What about scaling from level 10 and up? And does gear change the % and increase of damage by the X? Because my 85 warrior has different numbers (higher actually) altogether.

More information is needed on this spell at this time because I believe not even at 85 is Mortal Strike's damage a constant.

Comment by Falsesummer

I don't have a warrior so I can't answer your later questions, but as to scaling:

Look at the top of the page, where the skill is described. Just under the tooltip, there should be a slider bar. Simply drag this along, and the description will change level (all the way to the seemingly pointless description at level 1).

No, it's still vague. And healers have great mana regen for every healing spec. So mana is never really a problem.Ghostcrawler said:We’ve been considering whether healing is too strong in PvP anyway. You may have noticed that we made the tooltips for Mortal Strike and equivalent debuffs intentionally vague for 4.1. As I write this, those debuffs are still at 10% healing, but we’re concerned that healing is too hard to counter and we might change that number. Changing it back to 50% would probably lead to the Mortal Strike debuff being mandatory for Arena comps again, but we never got much of a chance to see its effects at say 20%. A 20% Mortal Strike debuff could easily counter any excessive healing caused by 200% crits.So yes, blizzard does think 10% is too low.

Comment by Kalimu

Does anyone know if these "reduce healing by 10%" effects now stack? since they got so nerfed...

Note: Buffs and debuffs provided by pets, profession perks, items and any other NPC are left out on purpose.

Wait Wait Wait Wait Wait Wait... + 100% spell power... WHAT?

Comment by xXzCodProxXz

Pathetic. This is the "puny strike", not what a real warrior uses. Looks like many players couldn't cope with 50% healing reduction, so of course blizz had to step in and nerf it. I don't even want to play my warrior anymore, its like some sort of pseudo rogue class type with homogenized debuffs and abilities

Here is the old mortal strike what "real warriors" used. Funny how mobs still get to use it Mortal Strike

It still hits quite hard lol I just critted a mob on a level 14 draenei warrior no boa just a green mace http://us.battle.net/wow/en/item/4778#tab=vendors for 537 damage(WOW) but still not as much as its level 60 incarnation...that's what ya get for using the level 10 one lol
